Made some progress today. I got a new puppy last Friday so my time has been busy trying to tame the poop/piss factory that is a little dog.
Anyways, Applied 3 coats of "Plasti-Cote" truck bed liner. ( A gallon was 43 bucks) I used a 2 inch brush to cut in the corners and then a 3 inch roller to do the rest of it
A word on this, It is a absolute mess to work with. I like the end result, but it gets everywhere. Cleans up easy though. Also be warned it WILL come thru the seams at some points and the open holes into the enginebay. I taped all them off and was glad I did. The strut tower seams still leaked when I did the inside of them. Wiped it off easily. I also "pinned" the door hinges in preperation for removal to paint the inners and jams. Pinning them is drilling holes in the hinges so that when you re attach the doors. You stick a few "pins"
into the holes and the doors are lined up rite off the bat.
Also, cleaned the crossmember, steering box, Motor mounts, steering shaft case, lower control arms, sway bar, and some steering links.. Then I sprayed them with gloss black rustoleum as I have used on all the other black parts so they match.
